From Save our Fairgrounds:
There
is an amendment to change to referendum being presented by Councilman
Sandra Moore on Tuesday's METRO COUNCIL meeting.

Please contact your
councilman \ all councilmembers and tell them to VOTE NO to this
amendment
The following is the language which will be up for vote:

AMENDMENT NO. __________
11.602 of Article 11 of the Charter of The Metropolitan Government of
Nashville and Davidson County shall be amended by deleting subsection
(d) in its entirety and substituting with the following new subsection
(d):

(d)
All uses of and activities conducted on the premises of the Tennessee
State Fairgrounds as of December 31, 2010, including, but not limited
to, the Fair, Expo Center Events, Flea Markets, and Auto Racing, shall
be continued on the premises unless the elimination or modification of
such uses or activities is approved by the Metropolitan Council by an
ordinance receiving twenty-seven (27) affirmative votes. Likewise, no
redevelopment or demolition of the Tennessee State Fairgrounds premises
shall occur without the approval of the Metropolitan Council by an
ordinance receiving twenty-seven (27) affirmative votes.”

Sponsored by: Sandra Moore

This
will change and make the fairgrounds once again vulnerable, giving
authority to the Council \ government and not the people. The people
spoke with 72% voting for this referendum to keep the fairgrounds and
it's existing uses. This is a total disregard to the wishes of the
people!!!!

We
urge everyone to contact their councilman and ask them to VOTE NO to
this amendment.
